Structure activity Relationships of calcium channel blockers:<br />
The structure-activity relationships for 1, 4-DHP derivatives indicate that the following<br />
structural features are important for activity:<br />
1) A substituted phenyl ring at the C4, position optimizes activity (heteroaromatic<br />
rings, such as pyridine, produce similar therapeutic effects; but are not used due to<br />
observed animal toxicity). C4 substitution with a small nonplanar alkyl or<br />
cycloalkyl group de creases activity.<br />
